"Lord Qiqi, the Marquis of Zhongyong on the city tower said that the prince has received the edict, and he ordered us to return to the station immediately!" About half a day later, the Qianhu rode his horse in a hurry, jumped off the horse after approaching the carriage, and shouted at Zhu Gaoxu. The fastest and most stable update is to see the latest chapter of Perfect World.

"What?" Zhu Gaochu was taken aback when he heard this, and then he realized that Zhu Gaochi must have forged the edict, because Emperor Yongle's "edict" was in his hands, how could Zhu Gaochi have an edict?

"Go, invite the young eunuch of the sea." After determining that Zhu Gaochi was overbearing, Zhu Gaochu said to a guard standing next to the car with an expressionless face.

In order to avoid triggering a senseless conflict, under the escort of dozens of personal guards, Zhu Gaoxu and Hai Shou, who was holding the edict in his hand, came to the Anding Gate and stopped outside the range of the fire gun and the bow and crossbow.

"Lord, the last general can't perform the full salute with his armor on his body, and I hope that the prince will forgive his sins." Upstairs at the city gate, Zhou Zheng arched his hand at Zhu Gaoxu and said loudly, "According to the edict of the first emperor, please return to the fiefdom of Ping Domain!" ”

"Governor Zhou, the emperor's edict is in the hands of the young eunuch Hai, I don't know where the edict in your mouth came from?" Zhu Gaoxu looked up at Zhou Zheng and asked quietly.

"Lord, the edict of the first emperor was sent by Li Yushi, who was accompanied by the edict, written by the scholar Yang of Wenyuan Pavilion, and sealed by the internal official and supervisor Ma Shaojian, and has been read out in the Taihe Palace." Zhou Zheng once again threw his hand at Zhu Gaoxu and shouted loudly, "Lord Wang, please return to the domain, so as not to make it difficult to do it." ”

Zhu Gaoxu sneered when he heard this, how could Emperor Yongle's edict be given by any cat or dog? How can a small imperial history be qualified to send an edict? He was just about to open his mouth to refute, when he suddenly thought of something, and the expression on his face couldn't help but change greatly.

If Zhu Gaoxu is not mistaken, the person who inexplicably disappeared into the Northern Expedition army before is an imperial historian, and his surname is Li, not only the Shuji of the Hanlin Academy, but also Zhou Zheng's son-in-law, if Zhou Zheng said this person, then the consequences would be terrible.

Zhu Gaoxu was a little hard to believe that the road leading to the capital from the west of Shanxi had been blocked by his order, and the capital was also full of his people, and he didn't understand how Li Yuntian avoided the many checkpoints and entered the palace without him noticing.

Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxu's forehead couldn't help but ooze cold sweat, in addition to the edict in Haishou's hand, what he relied on the most was the Jingwei stationed in the capital.

Obviously, it is no longer possible to use the edict to deter Zhou Zheng, and the Jingwei in the city is also controlled by Zhou Zheng and others, after losing these two killer features, Zhu Gaoxu has no way to face the tall walls of Beijing.

Beijing City as an important town in the north of the Ming Dynasty, the city is already high and thick, Yongle Emperor moved the capital and then renovated and reinforced, when Li Longji led hundreds of thousands of troops failed to conquer it.

If there were not enough troops and siege equipment, Zhu Gaoxu could only be blocked out of the city.

What particularly worried Zhu Gaoxu was that there were also Jing guards under Zhou Zheng and others outside the city, watching him from the sidelines, and once a conflict broke out, he would be attacked from the back.

"Lord, please go back to the domain." Zhou Zheng saw that Zhu Gaoxu fell into silence, and knew that he had scruples in his heart, so he shouted loudly.

"Lord Wang, as long as you give an order, your subordinates will lead people into the city and kill all these traitors." At this time, a personal guard came to Zhu Gaoxu and said murderously.

Without waiting for Zhu Gaochu to speak, a fast horse came from the rear, and the knight on the horse arched his hand at Zhu Gaochu and said in a deep voice, "Lord Wang, a team has appeared in the rear of our army, with a total number of about 30,000, and the leader is 3,000 battalions, which have already set up an attack formation!" ”

"Damn!" Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help clenching his fists when he heard this, and looked up at Zhou Zheng on the city gate, the three thousand battalions belonged to Zhou Zheng's commander, and Zhou Zheng's move was undoubtedly to force him back.

Zhu Gaoxu was experienced in a hundred battles, so he naturally knew the power of the 5,000 Mongolian cavalry of the 3,000 battalions, and a single charge would scatter his troops.

"Let's go!" Staring intently at Zhou Zheng on the tower of the city gate for a long time, Zhu Gaoxu coldly popped out a word in his mouth, and turned around and walked away with the reins of the horse.

He knew that he had lost the battle with Zhu Gaochi, so he could only choose to leave and look for an opportunity to make a comeback in the future.

When he passed in front of Hai Shou, Zhu Gaoxu took away the edict he was holding, this thing is no longer useful, and it will only be used as a joke if he stays.

Hai Shou was taken aback when he saw this, and the corners of his mouth moved and wanted to shout to Zhu Gaoxu, it was a big crime to take away the edict, but in the end he didn't dare to say it, for fear that Zhu Gaoxu would be angry and angry with him.

"Send the prince!" Zhou Zheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, arched his hand at Zhu Gaoxu's back, and said loudly.

Due to the failure of the succession, Zhu Gaoxu naturally did not stay in the capital to let others see his jokes, and led his men back to the domain, and the troops of Hebei Dusi and Jingwei under his command also returned to their respective camps, and a war was finally avoided.

After the enthronement ceremony, Zhu Gaochi immediately changed into filial piety clothes and sent the crown prince Zhu Zhanji out of the city to welcome the funeral and take back the coffin of Emperor Yongle.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, the palace could not prepare so many filial piety clothes for the civil and military officials at the scene, so they could only send a white cloth to everyone and tie it to their heads.

It wasn't until the night that the gate of the palace city opened, and the officials who had been in the palace for a day poured out, gathering in groups and whispering about what happened today.

Yang Shiqi's side is full of high-ranking officials and dignitaries, he is an old minister of the East Palace, and Zhu Gaochi will naturally reuse him after he ascends the throne.

Lu Zhongqian and the others were pale, and even many nobles deliberately kept a distance from them, because they were on the side of King Han, it was estimated that the future would be difficult.

Li Yuntian and Lei Ting were left in the Qianqing Palace by Zhu Gaochi, and told Zhu Gaochi about the experience on the way to Beijing.

Of course, some private things were naturally concealed by Li Yuntian, such as Lei Ting encountering cockroaches when she was bathing in the firewood room......

"Li Yushi, you have made great contributions this time, and I will definitely reward you." After listening to Li Yuntian's narration, Zhu Gaochi laughed, if it weren't for Li Yuntian's wisdom and bravery, I'm afraid this edict wouldn't have been sent to the palace, and it should be rewarded.

"Your Majesty, Weichen just did his duty, what merit?" Li Yuntian hurriedly arched his hand at Zhu Gaochi, and said in shock, "Besides, Weichen became the imperial historian and the emperor at a young age, which is already the emperor's grace, so there is really nothing else to ask for." ”

"If those officials of the Ming Dynasty can be as loyal as you, I will be able to save a lot of worry." Zhu Gaochi nodded with satisfaction when he heard this, there are too few capable and self-aware officials like Li Yuntian.

"Miss Lei, you have also made great contributions, if you have anything you want, you can sue sù me." Then, Zhu Gaochi looked at Lei Ting, who was sitting crampedly next to Li Yuntian, and asked with a smile, it was with her cover that Li Yuntian entered the capital so smoothly.

"Your Majesty, this is what a people's daughter should do, don't dare to take credit." Lei Ting couldn't help but glance at Li Yuntian when she heard this, and then bowed down to answer.

"It must have been Li Yushi who taught you to say that." Seeing this, Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but smile slightly, "You are different from him, he is an official of my Ming Dynasty, and the Lu of the Eater will naturally have to bear the worries of the king, you are just a commoner, and you must be rewarded for making such a great achievement, otherwise it will not chill the hearts of the people." ”

"Whatever you want, open your mouth to the emperor." When Li Yuntian heard this, he turned to Lei Ting and said.

"Your Majesty, the people's daughter wants to ask the emperor to marry the people's daughter in the future." Lei Ting glanced at Li Yuntian, then at Zhu Gaochi, bit her lip and said coquettishly, her cheeks couldn't help but flush with two patches.

"Haha, okay, I promise you, the children of the hundreds of civil and military officials in the capital are all chosen by you." Zhu Gao was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, he didn't expect Lei Ting to make such a strange request.

Li Yuntian also showed a look of surprise, and looked at Lei Ting with rosy cheeks in puzzlement, he didn't expect Lei Ting to make such a strange request.

It was already midnight when he left the palace, and because it was getting late, Zhu Gaochi asked several pro-soldiers to escort Li Yuntian and Lei Ting home.

Along the way, Li Yuntian and Lei Ting were silent on their horses, several pro-soldiers followed behind on horses, and the sound of messy horses' hooves echoed in the silent and empty streets.

"You're waiting here." After arriving at the Cao Gang's guild hall in the capital, Li Yuntian ordered the pro-soldiers, and came to the door with Lei Ting, slapping the iron ring on the door.

"Coming, coming......" A man's voice soon came from the door, and then the courtyard door creaked open, and a young man in clothes glanced at Li Yuntian in official clothes and Lei Ting in inner clothes, bowed down and asked, "Two adults, who are you looking for?" ”

"Find your helper." Seeing that the young man didn't recognize him, Lei Ting decided to make a joke with Lei Xiaotian, so she answered in front of Li Yuntian.

"The two adults are please, and the younger one will go to the helper." The young man glanced at the pro-soldiers outside the courtyard gate, and hurriedly invited Li Yuntian and Lei Ting into the courtyard.

When Li Yuntian and Lei Ting were sitting in the living room waiting, someone notified Lei Xiaotian, who was already asleep, and Lei Xiaotian was surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly dressed and came over to check.

"Two adults, I don't know what you are doing when you come late at night?" After entering the hall, Lei Xiaotian smiled and arched his hand to Li Yuntian and Lei Ting, who were sitting there drinking tea, secretly guessing the intention of the two.

"Gang Leader Lei, are you guilty?" Hearing this, Lei Ting stood up and asked in a deliberately thick voice.

"The villain doesn't understand what the adults mean, please make it clear!" Lei Xiaotian felt that the chamberlain in front of him seemed to be very familiar, but because of the dim lighting, he couldn't remember where he had seen this chamberlain for a while, so he replied quietly.

"You have chosen a son-in-law for your daughter without authorization, and you have already committed a crime and deceived the king." When Lei Ting heard this, she said seriously.

"Criminals deceive the king?" Lei Xiaotian was suddenly confused, he found his daughter's in-law, and it didn't seem to have anything to do with bullying.

"Ting'er!" Then, Lei Xiaotian thought of something, suddenly looked at Lei Ting, and shouted.

"It's not fun at all to get into a goofs so quickly." Lei Ting stuck out her tongue and walked in front of Lei Xiaotian with a smile, "Dad, I didn't act like it just now." ”

"Come on, tie up this swaggering guy to the gang leader, fix it first, and send it to the official tomorrow." Lei Xiaotian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he had been worried about Lei Ting all day, and then his eyes flashed, and he pointed at Li Yuntian who was sitting there and shouted.

Obviously, Lei Ting is not only back, but also looks relaxed, so the young man in the official robe who followed her must be Li Yuntian, and he wants to give Li Yuntian a dismount.

With a hula, as soon as the sound of thunder fell, more than a dozen big men broke in.

"Dad, you can't catch him." Lei Ting was taken aback when she saw this, and hurriedly rushed forward to protect Li Yuntian, and said to Lei Xiaotian in a coquettish voice, "You tell them to step back, I have something to say to you." ”

"Hmph, you actually pretended to be an official of the imperial court, how could this gang leader allow you to spread wild here!" Seeing that Lei Ting actually protected Li Yuntian in public, Lei Xiaotian couldn't help but be annoyed, if this was spread out, Lei Ting's reputation would be ruined, he thought that Li Yuntian must have deceived Lei Ting with rhetoric, so he yelled angrily at the big man in the room, "What are you doing in a daze, and you will take this liar down to the gang leader." "One
